Our whole team will work with you to create a comprehensive and personalized treatment plan to help improve your symptoms and quality of life, including innovative technical solutions that help target and personalize treatment by focusing on disease prevention.

Research Overview
We are invested in the discovery and development of new therapies for the treatment of HCM. Through our research program and clinical trials, we can offer eligible patients access to novel therapies before they are available for use on the market. For example, we are currently investigating wearable devices with biosensors that have the potential impact to improve HCM detection and management.
In addition, our collaboration with the Association of Black Cardiologists (ABC) is pivotal in bridging the gap in disparities research. This international nonprofit organization is dedicated to eliminating the disparities related to cardiovascular disease in all people of color.
